Hardwood adds natural beauty to any home.

The elegance and natural characteristics of wood add depth, warmth and character to a room – creating a unique and inviting visual appearance most other flooring can’t duplicate.

Rich, inviting hardwood floors are:

• Visually appealing
• Easy to care for
• Add value to your home
• Available in all types, options and applications

With growing demand for hardwood floors, manufacturers today are producing higher quality products – including improved finishes and superior construction techniques.

The result? High quality, beautiful wood flooring can now be installed throughout the home over a wide variety of subfloors.

Discover the bamboo alternative.

Here’s another option to consider for your flooring needs: bamboo. It’s easier on the earth, extremely durable and flame resistant.

The benefits of bamboo.

Unlike hardwood, bamboo is not a product of trees. It’s actually a fast growing grass.

Bamboo can grow from sprout to harvesting in three to five years – thus an acre of bamboo can provide more flooring than an acre of trees.

Bamboo is earth-friendly.

If you’re concerned about “green” issues in today’s world, consider these unique features of bamboo harvesting:

Sustainable – When bamboo shoots are cut, the roots remain intact and new sprouts quickly grow in their place.

Protective – The dense root mass of bamboo helps prevent soil erosion.

Bountiful – Bamboo provides a viable crop opportunity in hilly acres or difficult terrain where other crops can’t grow.

The species used for flooring is harvested from selected groves in Southern China. Don’t worry about the Pandas going hungry – this type of bamboo is not on their menu!

Bamboo – the attractive choice.

Bamboo flooring comes in planks and is installed just like engineered hardwood flooring. It can be an attractive alternative to hardwood flooring because it is:

• Eco-friendly



• Dimensionally stable (27% harder than Northern Red Oak, 13% harder than Hard Maple)



• Versatile (can either be nailed-down, glued-down or floated on a variety of subfloors)



• Flame resistant



• Easy to install
